What you'll learn

Chapter 1 - Facility Overview - This chapter provides a basic overview of the primary components of a typical UST facility. These components include the USTs, manways, spill buckets, fuel dispensers, and dispenser nozzles.

Chapter 2 - Monitoring - This chapter emphasizes the components used to monitor a UST facility. Students will learn what an Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) is and does, how to interpret its alarms and warnings, and what to do in case of an alarm. The role of line leak detectors is also discussed.

Chapter 3 - Environmental - In this chapter, students learn about sensitive receptors, or places where a fuel spill may leave the facility and enter the environment. The chapter also introduces students to the spill kit and its contents, and how to use spill kit components to contain spills threatening sensitive receptors like curb breaks and drains.

Chapter 4 - Fueling Rules - The focus of this chapter is fuel delivery safety. Students will watch a short video on proper fueling procedures. Students also learn about hazards at the fueling point, including smoking, static electricity, leaving a vehicle unattended while fueling, and leaving a vehicle running while fueling.

Chapter 5 - Delivery Procedures - This chapter teaches the student how to supervise a fuel delivery and monitor for problems during a fuel delivery. Additional emphasis is placed on the ATG and on overfill prevention devices like overfill prevention valves and ball float valves. Delivery prohibitions are also addressed.

Chapter 6 - Safety - This chapter covers safety information every Class C Operator needs to respond to emergencies. Included here is a video explaining when and how to use a fire extinguisher. The Emergency Stop and All Stop buttons are identified and discussed.

Chapter 7 - Emergency Situations - This chapter discusses common emergency situations and proper responses to them, including what to do if a vehicle leaves the facility with the nozzle still in the vehicle's fuel spout. Managing customer traffic in the event of a spill is also covered. Correct fire extinguisher operation is reviewed.

Chapter 8 - Orientation Checklist - This orientation is to be performed by a manager or Class A/B operator at the Class C operator's facility. It will familiarize the trainee with the various site-specific components of the facility and relate them to the content discussed in the PASS UST Class C Operator Training Course.

Practical American Safety Solutions, better (and more easily) known as PASS Training & Compliance, or PASS, was founded in response to the passing of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, when the idea of UST Operator Training was first introduced. We worked closely with many state legislators and regulators to help finalize their laws to meet the federal requirements. We then quickly grew to expand relationships with nearly every US state and territory to become one of the country’s largest providers of UST Operator Training via our web-based learning management system, PASS Training.

As regulations grew and evolved, so did the demand on the time and attention of UST operators. We saw this as an opportunity to even better serve our customers, which lead to the development of our cloud-based compliance manage platform, PASS Tools for Companies, along with our partner-driven service provider network, PASS Tools for Service Providers.

As things continue to change we will always have a finger on the pulse of regulations and compliance in the UST and AST industries, to help ensure that our customers are equipped with everything necessary to easily and effectively do their jobs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frontline. It's built for Rhode Island employees who react first to alarms and releases at a UST fuel site, not for owners overseeing compliance from a distance.

Federal rules on underground storage tanks set the boundaries of the role, and the course spends real time on two habits: watching the dispensers and catching an alarm before it escalates.

Rhode Island operators follow the taught first-response sequence, cut power to the equipment, and escalate to a Class A/B operator when the situation calls for it.

A facility orientation checklist, completed separately from the online lessons, verifies site-specific knowledge.

Rhode Island staff can expect to be done within half an hour, certificate included — short enough to complete during a slow shift.
